This is gonna really suck for flight attendants who can't always jumpseat and make even less than most pilots. At what point is the job not even worth it anymore for someone who doesn't make a whole lot to begin with but now has to pay to go to work? I wonder if UAX carriers may have a harder time finding flight attendants and FOs when the exodus starts. I guess this might be one way to take care of scope issues-UAX carriers can't staff properly because the job is slowly becoming not worth it for some folks. It sucks for pilots but we'll deal with it for career progression but we'll still need flight attendants for airplanes to go places. It sucks that now we get to pay a segment fee for practically no priority.
